Last week I came across another excellent post on The Creative Language Classroom, this time on the use of flags for pair work research tasks. Kara Parker has made a colourful set of flags for the 21 countries where Spanish is an official language, and they are available to buy here. I have printed and laminated the flags and I have already used them to randomly pair students for oral work. In my Spanish Novice 1 class I have also had students choose a flag at random as their country of choice for their research project. This has helped avoid the usual problem of students arguing over he countries they want to research and ending up with 20 presentations on Mexico!
